Man Utd's Fletcher knocked out by toilet door
Manchester United midfielder Darren Fletcher was knocked unconscious after their victory over Olympique Lyon last week.
Fletcher was left unconscious when a toilet door fell on his head.
The Scotland international needed treatment in the Old Trafford dressing room after the Red Devils' Champions League victory over Lyon last week.
The 24-year-old required stitches in a head wound and a club insider told the Daily Record: "It happened half an hour after the end of the match.
It looked very, very nasty.
"I saw blood pouring out and the medical staff had to treat him there and then. I know he got stitches. He looked pretty dazed and pretty shocked.
You don't expect a door to just fall on you."
United qualified for the last eight with a 2-1 aggregate win."
The source added: "The dressing room was relaxed and happy after the match - it was a case of job done.
It seems that there was something seriously wrong with the toilet door.
"I don't know if fittings had come loose or what - but when Darren went to open the door, it came away and clobbered him.
"It was a nasty wound but it could have been worse. The other players were looking about scratching their heads in disbelief but at least medical staff
were right there on the spot."
